Discussion in JREF forum about a Estonian ufo-photo. - FAKE

I discovered, that someone called "Satakas" (I wonder who ) has posted my photos into a international forum. International skeptics forum.
Seems, that this "Satakas" is pretty disappointed, for getting no skeptical explenation for that phonemen.

Topic is here: http://forums.randi.org/showthread.php?t=153581

The original photos that started this conversation, were taken on Tallinn- Helsinki ferry. August 2008.

Some say, that it could be:
Some sort of optical interference http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Interferenc...opagation)
Or diffraction of a rain drop - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffraction
Or coherence - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherence_(..._coherence
Or a reflection on the glass infront of the camera....

Which is it then? Or are they all speculations without any solid base? I mean, the pictures were awesome But if you never altered them in any way then... Well, the symbol is worth studying

Tsitaat:Which is it then? Or are they all speculations without any solid base?

Well...that's the problem with those kind of photos - there's rarely any solid base for anything, all you can do is try to speculate and from these speculations find the most probable one...

And what do you think is the most probable speculation?

It's kinda early for that...
...but I wouldn't mind if someone more at home in optics(and general physics) would take a look..clearly it's too regular shaped to be a actual flying object...I speculate that there is a correlation between the rainbow, camera lens and the object(as if some sort of optical illusion)...but yeah, who knows...

A UFO looking like a Minolta sign

But who knows what it is... Interesting photos anyway

Maybe its other way around - UF O looks like Minolta sign ...

So, this Minolta sign looks like a UFO Great! That must mean that the creators of the Minolta sign know smth... I do not believe in coincidences.

Good news everybody,
I got a confirmation from the author of this original picture. He confessed, that it's fake . Reflection from a window, like skeptics suggested.
